Rotating modulation collimators (RMCs) are one member of a family of techniques for X-ray imaging that do not require focusing optics. Instead such techniques use opaque material to create temporal or spatial variations in the detected signal from a source from which its image can be reconstructed. We discuss the RMC imaging technique and its relation to other members of that family, its application for the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager, and potential future missions such as Cyclone, a proposed NASA Small Explorer mission, and GRIFFIN, a hybrid technology combining RMCs with focusing optics.
